MyoBrace J1 Myofunctional Appliance for Children Aged 3 to 5 Years

The Myobrace for Juniors is a functional orthodontic solution designed for children between 3 and 5 years old. It was developed to correct inadequate myofunctional habits, which can lead to dental misalignment and improper jaw and facial development. With a preventive focus, this appliance helps ensure that the child grows with a healthy facial structure and natural dental alignment, minimizing or eliminating the need for invasive orthodontic treatments in the future.

Why is Myobrace for Juniors Important?

At this age, the child’s facial bones and teeth are at a crucial stage of development. Many dental and facial issues are caused by poor myofunctional habits, such as:

• Mouth breathing: Which can affect facial growth and lead to health problems.
• Improper tongue posture: Contributes to dental misalignment and asymmetric facial development.
• Bad oral habits: Such as thumb sucking or prolonged pacifier use.

• Simple daily use: It should be worn for 1 to 2 hours during the day and while the child sleeps.
• Easy adaptation: Its design is made to accommodate young children without causing discomfort.
• Myofunctional exercises: Accompanied by a simple exercise program, it helps the child breathe properly and strengthen facial muscles.
• Non-invasive alternative: It replaces traditional orthodontic treatments, such as braces or fixed expanders, in a natural and preventive way

How Does Myobrace for Juniors Work?

Myobrace for Juniors uses a flexible and comfortable material to help the child adopt correct oral habits.

• Correction of oral habits: Eliminates mouth breathing and positions the tongue correctly on the roof of the mouth.

The treatment follows three main stages:

• Correction of myofunctional habits: Teaches the child to breathe through the nose, keep the tongue in the correct position, and close the lips naturally.

• Maintenance of results: Ensures that healthy habits are maintained as the child grows
